Abstract

An electronic device at a network side serves as a first user equipment and a second user equipment. The electronic device includes a processing circuit and is configured to: determine the second user equipment to share a channel occupy time (COT) of the first user equipment on a time domain, wherein the first user equipment and the second user equipment send uplink information to the electronic device in the COT of the first user equipment using orthogonal frequency domain resources; and generate frequency domain resource indication information of the second user equipment to indicate a frequency domain resource for the second user equipment.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An electronic device for a user side, comprising processing circuitry configured to:
 determine that a Channel Occupy Time (COT) of the electronic device is shared with other user equipment in time domain, wherein the other user equipment and the electronic device transmit information associated with sidelink communication performed between the electronic device and the other user equipment within the COT of the electronic device using orthogonal frequency domain resources; and   generate frequency domain resource indication information of the other user equipment, to indicate frequency domain resources used for the other user equipment,   wherein the electronic device and the other user equipment transmit the information associated with the sidelink communication performed between the electronic device and the other user equipment using orthogonal frequency domain resources within a same BandWidth Part BWP.   
     
     
         2 . The electronic device according to  claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to:
 transmit the time domain resource indication information of the other user equipment, to the other user equipment or the network side device.   
     
     
         3 . The electronic device according to  claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to:
 receive frequency domain resource indication information of the electronic device from the network side device; and   determine frequency domain resources used when the electronic device transmits the uplink information according to the frequency domain resource indication information.   
     
     
         4 . The electronic device according to  claim 1 , wherein the frequency domain resource indication information of the electronic device indicates an index used for frequency domain resources of the electronic device, the indexes of the frequency domain resources have a mapping relationship with frequency domain resources within the BWP. 
     
     
         5 . The electronic device according to  claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to:
 transmit frequency domain resources used when the electronic device transmits the uplink information to the other user equipment, to cause the other user equipment to transmit the uplink information by selecting frequency domain resources orthogonal to the frequency domain resources used for the electronic device.   
     
     
         6 . The electronic device according to  claim 1 , wherein the electronic device and the other user equipment transmit uplink information to the network side device using different BandWidth Parts BWPs. 
     
     
         7 . The electronic device according to  claim 6 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to:
 perform a channel detection process on a plurality of BWPs; and   transmit uplink information to the network side device using a BWP that is detected to be idle in the channel detection process.   
     
     
         8 . The electronic device according to  claim 7 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to:
 transmit channel detection results of the plurality of BWPs to the network side device, to cause the network side device to determine at least one of the BWPs that are detected to be idle by the electronic device, as a BWP used for the other user equipment.   
     
     
         9 . The electronic device according to  claim 7 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to:
 transmit a BWP that is detected to be idle in the channel detection process and is not used by the electronic device to the other user equipment, for the other user equipment to transmit uplink information.   
     
     
         10 . The electronic device according to  claim 6 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to:
 transmit uplink information to the network side device; and   receive feedback information from the network side device using each of a plurality of BWPs of the electronic device that are in the activated state.   
     
     
         11 . The electronic device according to  claim 6 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to:
 transmit uplink information to the network side device; and   switch the electronic device to one of a plurality of BWPs that are in the activated state configured for the electronic device, in a case that no feedback information is received from the network side device within a predetermined time.   
     
     
         12 . The electronic device according to  claim 11 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to:
 perform a channel detection process on the plurality of BWPs that are in the activated state configured for the electronic device; and   switch the electronic device to a BWP that is detected to be idle in the channel detection process among the plurality of BWPs that are in the activated state.
